My standard response is "tell me, in specific detail, how exactly I'll be 'left behind,'" and to date not a single techbro has ever answered the question. "You'll be left behind" is a statement of religious faith, not business fact, and should be treated as such.
So the “figure out how to use it lest you be left behind” replies about ‘AI’ that have been popping up here strike me as inauthentic but also kind of funny because they grant the point that rather than an automation panacea these technologies are quite difficult to figure out how to use effectively

To the extent this “movement” is about getting estranged parents to move on with their lives and stop trying to reconcile with kids that don’t want to be, sounds like a good thing to me even if they’re still angry about it? Who gives a shit that these parents might be angry. Fine. Okay. Whatever.
This article isn't political, but you can tell exactly who these people voted for, even if the estrangement wasn't about politics.

We practice a particularly rude form of radical equality. No matter how rich or poor you are, no matter your gender, race, or creed, you’re a fucking idiot who can’t fucking drive, fucking God, what the hell are you fucking doing, get out of the fucking intersection you fucking prick.
This is a nonsense accusation. Bostonians are insufferably douchey to EVERYBODY. Any man or woman, whatever color or creed, can walk down the street confident that someone will tell them to go fuck themselves.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development said Thursday that it was opening an investigation into housing policies in Boston, scrutinizing whether the city discriminated against white people.

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

The medical examiner claimed there were other instances of this.
